Bosonization of curved Lie bialgebras
We use Cartier's preadditive symmetric monoidal categories to study Lie bialgebras. We prove that bosonization can be done consistently in this framework. In the last part of the paper we present explicit examples and indicate a deep relationship between certain curved Lie bialgebras and Nichols algebras over abelian groups.
